Keeping Matchday Crowds Safe with Unafor Core
Balancing Safety, Security and Operational Efficiency
Matchdays present unique challenges for security and counter-terrorism planning for football clubs. The interplay of rush hour traffic, crowded streets, and thousands of fans arriving at the stadium demands meticulous coordination – and a Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) solution that is rated, versatile, and can be tailored to your club’s branding.
Our range of Unafor semi-permanent HVM solutions offers robust and flexible security protection, enabling you to add and remove the solution quickly and easily as and when your needs change – such as matchdays and non-matchdays. The Core provides a lightweight HVM system that can be removed and installed manually without any lifting equipment, utilising a special key to unlock the upstands.
The benefits of the Unafor Core System
- Compact Design: The socketed posts are only 600mm high, ensuring unobtrusive protection that blends seamlessly into any environment.
- Easy Installation: No heavy machinery needed. The posts are socketed, meaning they can be easily put in place or removed as needed, and securely locked for safety.
- Urban-Friendly: Foundations can be installed with minimal disruption, making them ideal for the entire footprint of your stadium or urban settings.
- Customisable: The posts can be shrouded to suit any club colours, sponsor, or competition, offering both protection and promotional opportunities.
- Good ROI: Once the initial investment is made, the system requires minimal maintenance and no additional staff to guard the solution during events, ensuring long-term cost efficiency.
The socketed design of the Unafor Core means that it can be manually removed to allow vehicular access during non-matchdays and reinstated for pedestrian permeability on matchdays.
As the Core itself is impact rated, it can be dressed in a variety of designs, colours, branding and shapes – such as street planters, bike racks or even as benches – anything is possible!
They’re bespoke, easy to install and adaptable, which ensures beautiful aesthetics as well as operational viability, whilst protecting matchday crowds against hostile vehicle incursions.
The Unafor Core can be customised in your club colours.
Versatile. Rated. Safer.
The Unafor Core system is one of the most versatile, rated, semi-permanent HVM systems on the market today.
Unafor Core requires no rebar and has a structural foundation depth starting from 200mm, making it a viable solution for almost all environments – from public realm, stadia, al fresco dining, and festivals to storefront protection.
Once your event is over, the Core system can be easily removed, returning access roads back to normal, and allowing local traffic to get moving again.
The versatility of the Unafor Core system can help to create a welcoming and secure environment for matchday crowds heading to and from your stadium.
